I am gonna be watching a play next week and there is no way I am doing it sober. I also don't wanna get blitzed all at once before the show and slowly crash into the wasteland of reality with time. I would like to slowly and steadily drink during the event.

I am not worried about the part involving sneaking the alcohol in. I will have to figure that out on my own.

My main concern is the choice of alcohol and how to drink it.

On paper, something clear like vodka or white rum mixed in water seems ideal since just by looking one cannot tell it apart from water. But the stench is quite unmistakeable so I am open to suggestions on what to drink.

Regarding how to drink it, the smell of the alcohol makes it a bit difficult to drink while watching. If I pop open my bottle/container the smell might give me away. I really don't know how people around me would react to that so I wanna avoid that. Other option is to drink in the washroom or something but that would require me to get up every 20-30minutes which seems suboptimal. Maybe if I use one of those sipper bottles I can drink during the show without the drink making contact with open air? Again, open to suggestions on this front too.

    just fyi it would be super rude and draw tons of attention to you to leave the theatre even once during the performance to go to the bathroom lol

    like obviously if you really have to piss it's fine to get up and go but everyone is gonna notice. it's possible that the ushers will ask you to wait for a scene change or even an act break to let you back to your seat. if you left the performance more than once the actors and the patrons will remember you.
